The elbow configuration allows piping or equipment connections to change direction while maintaining a compact threaded installation.
How a Threaded Elbow Works
Directional Change
The elbow body changes the direction of the piping connection without requiring a curved section of pipe or tubing.
Threaded Installation
The threaded ends connect to compatible mating fittings, valves, adapters, manifolds, or equipment connections as required by the piping layout.
Chrome Plated Brass Construction
Brass Body
Brass provides durable metal construction and corrosion resistance for compatible plumbing, pneumatic, instrumentation, and industrial applications.
Chrome Plated Finish
The chrome plated exterior provides a smooth, clean appearance and added surface protection, making the fitting useful in compatible exposed installations.

Selecting the Correct Chrome Plated Elbow
| Selection Point | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Connection Size | Confirm the fitting size required for both mating connections. |
| Thread Configuration | Verify the thread configuration matches the components being connected. |
| Directional Requirement | Confirm an elbow configuration matches the required piping layout. |
| Material & Finish | Confirm chrome plated brass is suitable for the application and installation environment. |
| Operating Conditions | Verify pressure, temperature, media, and system requirements before installation. |
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the fitting size and thread configuration before ordering.
- Verify the elbow orientation matches the intended piping layout.
- Inspect all threads for damage or contamination before installation.
- Use a thread-sealing method suitable for brass fittings and the intended media.
- Avoid overtightening and verify pressure, temperature, media, and application compatibility.
